The rising security issues of womes in city should be looked into more seriously. Prima facie i feel that instead of having a cab for pickup and drops, a bigger vehicle can be used so that there are always more people around in the vehicle. Another option could be hiring female drivers. But this is a shame on the lunatics who are now behind the bars.

This incident has brought up the real face of this so called booming industry. If a female employee of your company is picked up by a cab driver in night, then why tracking of such cab is not done over the phone to ensure that she reaches in office at desired time. How could it possible that none of the transport supervisors of company was aware of this for two days?

Company's mismanagement is responsible for this. Police should send the concerned officer of the company behind the grills. Then and then only they will realize the importance of security of an employee.

I am also working in a call center for about two years, and from my experience i came to know that these company's are just concerned with their business.Employee will be the last thing they would think of.

This is shame on our city. Big IT companies spend so much of money in branding and showing off, but cann't secure their own employees. She was on duty when she boarded in the cab. This should be considered as a crime happened in company hours and all the concerned people should be routhlessly pushished. Unless and untill some tough action is not taken, people will not respect the law and police. Let's see what our so called caring Political leaders and government do about this.

everyone is trying to find a fault with and put blame on the companies and the management. No one is talking about hanging these lunatics as soon as are found guilty of it. No wonder we keep thinking why can we not put such behaviour to an end.

Very very disturbing news. Pune is travelling on the road downhill from pensioner's city to a chaotic city. The time has come to bring another Shivaji who would bring justice to the society. Such incidents are bound to happen when an antinational (read congress) government is govering. What needs to be done is to hunt down the relatives of the criminal (innocent or otherwise), so that nobody can do that in future. An eye for an eye is the only solution.

We can not do that because we have a f u c k i n g thing called constitution. The people in Bihar have already shown how criminals start fearing by taking a law in their own hand. Whatever the media may say, i was infact very very happy when i saw the thief being dragged by the policeman on motorbike (Human rights activists should stay away from me for their own good). If the condition deteriorates, the day will come when people will be forced to follow it and would start lynching criminals by themselves.

It is wrong , perticularly on the part of the company. They could have easily provided the security at least for lady employees. The culprits are worse than animals and must be hanged to death as early as possible without indulging into the lengthy formalities, once they have agreed for the crime......

With Pune going into hands of people from Pune district instead of Pune city, it was bound to be that way. They have given big money to their cronies for buying cabs, vikrams and others and with money comes lust. If you cant buy it, you steal it. Poor Jyoti, she lost her life and before that her self pride (which is like a glass, once cracked can never be joined)

Shame with Wipro, the company who never thought of tracing their female employee.

Shame with the duo who should be lynched publicly to death, organ by organ, starting with that organ which they used in this crime.

This should be the official punishment to such crime, like stoning to death in Saudi Arabia.

It is very unfortunate, inhumane, provoking anger and disgsut that a girl was raped and then murdered. The employer, the police and the public at large should be ashamed that they can not provide security to hapless girls like these. Adequate compensation shold be given to her kins and the the criminals (the prepretators) should be given a harsh punishment so that nobody else can dare to commit sucvh heinous acts in future. A law should be made to make it mandatory for employers to use public lasrge vehicels to carry these employees like tata buses.

Exemplary deterent punishment has been the need of the hour for a long time,but our ruling politicians are not bothered, as their energy is concentrated only in further subdividing the country through more reservations & remaining perpetually in power!

No wonder such heinous crimes continue unabated day in & day out!So sad that this happened on eve of Diwali! The callousness of parents to allow daughters to migrate to other towns to do such call centre jobs at night just due to lure of money!!!

The callousness of big companies not to provide their own vehicles & security to females & leave it to their choice & fate to avail of some unknown transport services at night is also equally apalling!!!

Wipro is responsible for her death, without any doubt. How it can get the employees to work in a vehicle without security?First thing is to cut both hands of these two cultprits immediately.Then they should be hanged naked upside down in the public place and every body should have rights to hit them whenever and wherever they feel. This kind of punishment is old but very effective for reducing future crimes.

May her soul peace in rest. But for her death, she is also little responsible. How a person at 10:30 pm can sit in a vehicle with unknown person. The drivers friend was there in vehicle, wasnt she aware of past crimes? How can she allow other person in a cab and board it. Another big problem if this generation, use of mobile. In the news, she was continuously talking on phone. I guess this call center culture should be changed a bit by companies only. They should follow proper dress code so that these lusty people wont get provoked .. I even see that girls driving with their friends or boy friends at 3 am. They go from office to home. i dont knwo why they dont have a fear. Apart from this, the company should also be blamed.

Friends,Welcome with the open heart the ill effects of Prosperity such as Pornography, Extortion, Kidnapping, Rapes, Murders, Aids, Teenage pregnancies, Obscene images on TV, Illegeal Drugs, Violance, Weapons, Fast and Expensive Cars, Alcohol, Divorces, and finally lost VALUES of the family and society.

Instead of fingerpointing and accusing the company for its responsibility, security etc., DECIDE what you want. Jobs at the Call Centre outsourced from other countries or normal life with limited amount of money?

Question to ask is, are we prepared for the grand sum of money from abroad? Are we prepared to reap the fruits of the Prosperity? Are we responsible enough to accept the responsibilites that come with it?

We, with rich culture of joined families and teachings should take the opportunity to blend our lives with the Values, disciplines with the prosperity.

RTO should make the GPS Tracking device compulsory on all Call center & transport vehicles. I am currently working on such system which can be easily implemented in India & will have a low usage cost. This will definitely help in such kind of issues.

It is very sad. Being a WIPRO employee, I know care company takes for us. There was no neglegence from company. We can't provide security to each and every person for every situation. Real moral education is required for drivers & self defence education for possible victim. It is shameful act for Pune. Sorry Jyoti from all of us! Our system could not protect you.

Just give that two criminal to public or to me we will show you how to treat with them. in future no one will try to think to do this kind of shame work. also that company should charge havey fine and they should take all time responcibilty of the family of that girl. also they have to take serious action to prevent these kind of things. hope our law system will give justice to JYOTI. if not ....

Is there any security for females? this is question for all IT companies. & Is it really necessary that ladies should work in night shifts? why parents also allowed there daughters or wifes to work in night shifts? This is very bad news. The persons who had done this, Government should give them such punishment & it should be very bad punishment infront of all Maharashtra so others should think 10 times before they will do like this & everyone should remember it.

The news has sullen whole country with an embarrassment that talent pool cannot survive in modern India. Jyoti Chowdhury, 22-year-old employee at a Wipro call centre in Pune was raped and killed by the driver.

What we can learn from this experience or just leave it like for next incident to happen. My family member is working in Indian BPO and I am really concern for the safety and security.

Who is responsible for this? Safety drawbacks from BPO Industry, Lack of Social infrastructure, high education in Women and lack of governance of political system in modern India?

This shocking murder has demanded the assurance to all the family who wants to educate their children to build modern India. They are really concerning of the health and safety issues for their love one and requirement of possible measurement to eliminate such crime.

I have emailed Sonia Gandhi, Prime Minister, Home Minister, India and Home Minister, Maharashtra. Esakal you have to “Gagruthi” in pune and I will do my utmost to support your activity.

In UK we have health and safety regulation and they control all the activities of all companies and but in India no one seems care about this. This is s national shame for the women and we should act quickly another wise there will be many victims in future.

Financial punishment will not bring that innocent back but we will keep alive other innocent by doing some thing. There is so much to do in India but seems no one bothers? We have to make an assurance from all the BPO companies that female worker are safe and there needs to be review on the health and safety on every 03 months and report should be public.

Companies don’t do proper background checks while employing drivers this real concerns. If BPO can make millions of dollar profit why don’t they have concern for health and safety? Sorry to think about but they will understand when there love one will die one day!!

We need to work before not after!! We have to send message across that

Safety first

• Don't sit in the Cab if there is no Male employee. • According to NASSCOM rules no female employee can be pick up and drop at first and last place. • Only Driver is allowed to drive not his friend? Or any kind of friendly service. • Check the roster as you board on the cab, which mentions the route. • Please ask your male colleagues to behave professionally with the Driver. • Please don't sleeps while you travelling to office? • Please don't use mobile while you travelling and always make sure that the route you are travelling is correct. • Make sure that you have all the detail at home/family member include 1. Cab driver mobile number – every week 2. Your friend’s mobile number and home details 3. Emergency phone number in diary or remember by mouth 4. Transport control number

If female employee looks any thing suspect then they can call police emergency, transportation facilities. If they don't like drivers behaviour please brings in attention to the management next day.

Please all female employees do not compromise with your life? Specially pick up and drop points!! Please be straight forward and strong voice all the time.

Such incidents will set back efforts to BPO growth and equal rights to women in Modern India. We need to have professional who can work on the safety of BPO staff and provide a new image to our country. What I believe is we have to look after each other!!

I will tell you what israel does when some palestinian explodes himself in the Israeli territory. They evacuate the home of the terrorist and his parent's home; and then they blow the homes using explosives. After that, if somebody from the local community gives space for that family to live, then the process is repeated with this new family too. The family of the criminal is persecuted to live like nomads. That is the most effective and emphatic punishment of all. To know that your loved ones will be hounded and they will curse you even after your death. That is the unwritten law of all the societies of the world. And some governments like Israel (for palestinians only). We should have that law here. Legally. Get his father, mother, brother, sister, wife, son, daughter and the exended families and make them nomads and advertise the fact. But that would not happen because we believe in that f u c k i n g constitution and we vote to the f u c k i n g sonia gandhi, sharad pawar, manmoron singh, lalu yadav, mulayam, mayavati and such jokers. Being in the country called India is a big liability rather than having benefits. I really don't feel bad that Afzal was caught. Infact, he should have succeeded so that, today, we would have been seeing statues of Sonia Gandhi with crows doing what we really want to do with her.

I think companies eventually blame the vendors. But while hiring companies are only concerned about cost of vehicle. Who think of security? Everyone wants low salary drivers and hence attrition rate for drivers is high and also work stress...........Lot of other things contribute to this

But believe me its real and actively happening in so called fastest growing top-tier IT company.

Feared girls get under in-security and work with tremendous tension. Such things can't be proved and girls worry about their own reputation. This is the main reason many such incidents are still in dark.

Mental harassment, character assassiation are common tactics followed by culprits in this.Watch out and you will know how fatal impacts it can produce on the victim girls.

A MENTAL - EMOTIONAL MURDER... harder than physical death.

Security gaurd - no use!

ESCALATE TO SENIOR MANAGEMENT? No one has real care for you. No sensitivity. No seriousness.

Wipro company is responsible for this.Company should be punished first. As this event has started from the company campus.The company is not following the standards set by the Police. A strong action should be taken againt Wipro and FIR should be filed against WIPRO.

Hon. President Madam (First Lady President of India), Hon. Supreme Court of India, Hon. Government, Hon. Armed Forces of India and Hon. Media: Is anybody is with the Culprit to save his life? Why are you waiting? Bring a Law, where Culprit should be hanged. No Court Case.. Just a Martial Law for such cases. Its a Shameful Condition for all of you, if you are not capable to control such incedents.

All organisations should mandate all the Ladies to attend professional training for Self Safety and Police should issue licenses for Arms to working ladies.

Execution of punishment should be as follows,1) Company CEO- Azim PremjiReason- Lack of safty measures towards the employee.2) RapistReason Not required and should be hanged till death as soon as possible.3) Cab contractor - at least for 7 years behind the bars and should not be allowed for cab business any more.

Though it has been made mandatory to have security escorts in the cab, there are some instances in wipro Pune where the transport doesnt provide Security.The cab drivers tell us on call that there is a male employee in the cab but when they reach at our place, they tell us that the male emp isnt coming to office. This should be taken care of. There are many times when cab drivers allow their friends to sit in the cab. These things are very common in Wipro. I am an employee of Wipro Technologies since past 2 years. So I am aware of all these things carried in Wipro.Even we being employess of Wipro Technologies have to do night shifts or early morning shifts( 6 am) where we are picked up and dropped by the cab. Wipro Transport should take care of these cases. I can still remember my first day when I did not get the security at late night shift. I had asked my manager about it. His words were, " Welcome to technologies. Yaha ke cab drivers ache hote hai. You wont get a security here." And now they have started providing the security after loosing precious life of a girl.

Its a very serious issue, we all must do some thing necessory to prevent such a horrible incedent.1) What if the companies can Train & Use Women Security Gurds as cab Drivers.2) More petrolling by Police cars.3) Regular security issue meetings at work places. note down if there are suspicious people around.4) Even for night shift the pic up should not be after 8pm, Its ok to go early than go when the rods are empty.I am horrified about Ms.Joti's horrible deth. THOSE CRIMINALS MUST BE HANGED IN PUBLIC LIKE THEY DO IN SAUDI ARABIA.May Jesus Christ the son of GOD bless her sole with peace.Pradeep,Saudi arabia.

Its a very sad incidence. Company is always responsible for such incidence as employee was coming to workplace & its responsibility of company to ensure proper safty of their employees as long as employee is the work place or in transit to/from work place. However its too late for late miss. Jyoti. but we can think of following possible preventive measures:

1.Girls should be doing only 1st or 2nd shift.

2. Girls should be never alone in cab & atleast she should be with fellow workers.

3. We can think of converting existing cabs in more secure cabs, by seperating driver cabin & passenger area with threaded hard glass sheet. So that passanger will get advantage of locking his/her side doors & glasses & thereby minimizing risk of direct access from driver's cabin. Its low cost option & is really effective. This is currently present in almost all Europian & American cabs.

4. The cab must have some trakking device & some kind of alarm system that can be activated by passenger in case of emergency.

Wipro wont understand this as this is the second incident at Wipro. Wipro runs only after money and business is more important to them than anyones life. So no need of providing the comments to Wipro. I am a Wipro Employee since past 4 years .

So now pune is also one of those unsafe cities. However just talking about the preventive actions may not help in this case. Generally it is one of the best ways to avoid such incidences but it does not lool like so, when it comes to human life...especially the end of life of an innocent person in such a brutal way. The 2 involved in this should be first given a sentence of cutting both their hands....then a case should be filed. Unless a hard action/ punishment taken against this (corrective action), there will not be any change in mindset of such scoundrels. Cutting their hands is not a revenge but a lesson to them and all those who dare to do such inhuman act.We cannot treat this as just one more news in the news paper...at least we have to remember that this has happened in our own city...which we are very proud of.

Do nasscom have guts? Do Police have guts to close down this call center. Why cann't just set an example.If we already have strict rules we should have punishment too. Shame on us pune people, if we do not protest against it then it we will be too late. Don't just wait until it happens to our loved ones....

May her soul peace in rest. But for her death, she is also little responsible. How a person at 10:30 pm can sit in a vehicle with unknown person.

It is the responsiblity of ALL.1. Company has to provide the security till she will reach at home.When I was in Bangalore, The same situation was there 2 years back. A Call cetre girl was the victim and All banaglorian raised the voice. The company has also taken good steps and arranged the Securities till the Person reach to home.What care has to be taken by company? 1. While Cab Moving from the company The security person should be accompany with her.2. If security is not available do not leave that CAB till then.3. The Women/girl moving in the Night time should carry companies security Help No. 4. The process shuold be like this--The CAB driver should contact the Security then Security will then contact to Working lady while picking. The CAB driver should reach to the Destination then only he should phone to Security.CAB/ CAB driver sholud not be changed for picking. Responsilbilty of GIRL/LADY/Women.1. During the night time they should not wear the misleading type of cloths.(Not to be in informal dress)2. They should be always alert about there routes. and should follow the same rout as decided by comany. If they do not follow immediately they should inform the security as well to home. (though reason may be traffic jam). Responsiblity to CAB driver: 1. They should always wear the Badtch always visible.2. They should not contact directly to Call center girl/lady.3. They shuold not accomapny with their friends while on duty.Responsibilty of People.:1. People should help to the victim if any suspesious things observed.2. Atleast they should inform the Nearby Police station/ Local group to avoid such things.

This reminds me of a similar incident that happened in bangalore some year/s back. Obviously, the company should be sued for this. The company has to be held resposible for the security of its employees. They should not be allowed to get away with it by saying that their transport operations are carried out by another company(vendor) on contract. The transport comapny vendor should also be held liable for this. There are a few solutions to this issue too. Some have already been suggested. I could suggest one: Why dont the BPO companies encourage vendors to hire women drivers for the cabs ? The company could bear the cost of training the women (the cost per person is not much and time too is not too long) and the vendor could employ them. This could also reduce the lawless manner in which the cab drivers drive on city roads. This can obviously be sorted out if the concerned people act.

However, I know that nothing will happen. Companies like WIPRO care only about their profit and would never act on anything unless it affects their bottom line. The statements given by the WIPRO officials after the incident prove it. Police and other concerned authorities.... well, nobody expects anything from them.

People will talk about this for 5-10 days and forget about it. Untill another innocent life is lost. And forget again.

Nature has gifted a woman a fifth sense by which she senses a danger from the male in her preence so that she can be more careful. A woman must know that each male is a potential rapist and should not in the name of equality of sexs, throw caution to the winds and take any risk with any other male execpt real brother and father.

This is not not NOT question about this incident alone. Please try to understand that the police and government are of no use in India. So whoever says that Wipro should do this and police should do that is never going to work! It would be people's duty to punish criminals in near future in india. So when you or somebody nearby catches a criminal, even a pickpocket, incite the mob to kill him rather than giving him to police. Mob mentality is different than a normal human being's psychology and normally it is violent. If people make it a rule to finish criminals on the spot, for each incident, then there is no need of police! And then there is no police protection to criminals!! Just imagine, this simple principle could have finished all pickpockets in Mumbai in a matter of months!!!

This is indeed a sad news.I feel at least the ID cards wear by employees can be made a safty device. You have ID card with high DB alarm in it and enough power so that once it starts should last 15-20 min and moment you snatch it from attached string, it should go off. This is easy way for personal safty. We can't change ill mentality of people, can't have police to patrol all surroundings areas so having personal safty looks feasible and easy option.

I am from Pune and very upset about this incidence. However if the security would have been provided to lady employees traveling at the night, then you can expect the security person to be a man and not a woman for obvious reasons. What if this would have been done by a security person itself. We have seen recent case at marine drive bombay where a police guy (Sunil More) raped a girl in the police chauky itself. I think these needs to be fought at 2 levels, one is the structure of the bus itself, the driver would not be allowed or locked in a separate area from the passenger area and only can be unlocked when reached to destination under high observations. This would add a safety from drivers at least. And only authorized employees needs to enter in the passenger area using thumb scans to doors. This would as well prevent outside non employee people entering the passenger area with any intention. Looks hi-tech though possible. Any more thoughts on this?

Its a shameful thing to happen, no doubt...and this needs rectification right away. All the call centers should have GPS systems and they should be monitered on regular basis from a control point. Any deviation on the route should be treated like a security breach. Plus, much needs to be done about the mentality of the staff..especially the drivers. The company should organise an orientation workshop at the time of appointment. At that time, the staff should be told of the rules and the importance of a certain work culture, and I feel that this should be done without mincing words.

Oh and Why only for people/women related to IT or BPO? Why not for common women? Why not a vigilent policeman and camera on each and every corner of road? Why the talks to change system only when a BPO employee suffers? Why different rules for common man and IT man?

I think the company has told its policy. The thing the girl could have done is to alert the company or refuse to board the car when there were no other people. Plus she was so engrossed in mobile conversation that she could not know she is in area which is dangerous. Ofcourse this not justify the murder. But some alertness on our part will help us.

Ms. Jyoti's death is very unfortunate incident.Such incidents are increasing now. But I feel that now more preventive measures are required by both Employee and Employer. I would like to suggest few practicable preventive measures listed below.1) For transport use mini buses having seating capacity more than 10 seats.2) GPS system should be made compulsary for these buses. (Not so costly, even in Bangalore city buses have GPS)3) Employ lady drivers for buses carring female employee.

Our legal system is outdated and has become absolutely ineffecitve in convicting and punishing the guilty.Everyday a large number of cases involving rape and murder are taking place all over the country. But the number of criminals convicted and punished is almost nil. Only instant justice of the TALIBANI model will create some fear in the minds of antisocial elements.MOHAN DADDIKARPUNE

Unfortunately there are some posts from people who find faults with victim. All those who think Jyoti was (partly) to be blamed for what was done to her should send their daughter/sister on cab with Borate and Kokade and then let company forget and do nothing for 24 hrs when they do not turn up.

And when the same thing happens to their daughter/sisters they should blame daughters/sisters than culprits and callous company.

Only then they should feel free to blame this victim.

When you take a company cab do you suspect that driver is going to rape and kill you? In a cab system where strangers may be in your cab every now and then do you ask everyone to show their badges? When you are on a call in train/bus/cab does it give anybody right to do the same crime to you?

Face it! It is a crime committed by two perverts assisted by third rate security system of a company that hardly cares for you or your life.

Stop blaming Jyoti and your daughters/sisters and start blaming the ones who are responsible for this gruesome and heinous crime.

Yes. Somebody was at fault. Sombody will be held responsible and will be punished. I hope they find person "really" responseible for this.

Instead of killing people who were allowed to err, we should set processes so that there are double/triple checks on any step in the process. e.g., it is unbelievable that nobody noticed for two days that this guy was sent to fetch the lady and she did not reach in time to office. Nobody questioned him?

If people are "allowed" to err, basic instincts will take over and similar incidents could occur in future. Processes should be such that anybody would think 10 times before going out of his way. There is no point in wasting invaluable police force efforts in checking the cabs now.
